Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  statement of facts  not to be read strictly 

Summary:

Arbitration awards are not to be subject to microscopic analysis with scrupulous rules of interpretation in an effort to find some way to reverse it. The role of the umpire is to examine the case in the context of the file as a whole.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  statement of facts  as a requirement 

Summary:

One must bear in mind the purpose the legislator intended by imposing Section 79(2) obligations on the Board. This is simply to ensure that both parties, which both have the right of evocation before an umpire, have some basis that allows them to justify the reasons for appeal.
